13 Injured In ‘Horrific’ Drive-By Mass Shooting In Roseland, Police Say

ROSELAND — At least 13 people were injured when two people opened fire on a large crowd gathered in Roseland Friday night in what the local alderman called a “senseless shooting.”

At about 11:08 p.m. Friday, a red SUV pulled up on a large group of people gathered in the 200 block of West 95th Street in the Princeton Park neighborhood of Roseland, according to police. Two people inside the SUV then opened fire on on the crowd before the fleeing the area, police said.

The victims’ ages range from 17 to 47, with most victims transporting themselves to local hospitals. Here are the 13 injuries as reported by police:

It is Chicago’s largest mass shooting so far in 2026, city data shows.

Mayor Brandon Johnson spoke out against Friday’s burst of violence, calling the Juneteenth mass shooting “heartbreaking” in an X thread.

“I am heartbroken by the violence in Princeton Park last night,” the mayor posted.
”What should have been a night of celebration and community reflection for Juneteenth was shattered by a horrific act of violence. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their loved ones.”

Johnson went on to thank the “swift, lifesaving work” of police officers and first responders.

Ald. Anthony Beale (9th) said the shooting is a reminder of “the cruel reality of the mindless menace of gun violence in our city.

“It does not just wound those caught in its crossfire; it steals a measure of joy from every
block it touches and chips away at the sense of security that binds communities together,” Beale, whose ward includes the area where the shooting took place, said in a statement. “We will grieve with the victims, stand with their families, and hold fast to the belief that violence does not get the final word — whether in Princeton Park or anywhere in Chicago.”
